The 36th Golden Disc Awards took place at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, Korea on 8 January. The award show which usually spanned across two days (in the previous years), was only conducted for a single day this year to adhere to the COVID 19 health and safety guidelines. Additionally, unlike most other award shows this year that brought back live audiences – with proper social distancing and abiding by other health rules, of course – the Golden Disc Awards was held without live audiences and the performances were all pre-recorded for airing.
